Re: [RC] Looking for a kid safe endurance prospect - Karen Everhart

Absolutely correct, and why they won't qualify as an adopter.

I have a question - if they can "only' afford a little bit to BUY the horse, what would tell me that they have the ability to actually provide quality CARE for the horse, since the purchase is only the beginning as we all know.

Amen Diane,
 
I had the same reaction, BUT, I get calls nearly every day from people wanting to know if the rescue has any horses with all the traits listed.  Before I can respond, they say something like "I cannot afford to pay much for the horse".  So I just chalked it up to another novice request.  Just makes me CRAZY!
 
Personally, I own one of these myself, a wonderful, gentle, "take care of you" horse and I have said, on more than one occasion, that he could not be bought for $25,000.
